Those little trucks and small japanese imports are incredibly popular in Canada as we have much less protectionism when it comes to used cars vs the US. They're a godsend to actual trades and business drivers who need a truck or what ever for their business, but don't need a giant unwieldy embarrassing F150.

Tiny trucks are great for some stuff but God help you if you have to take one on the highway. Or just generally drive for more than a few minutes because they're uncomfortable as gently caress.

What if you're driving a kei truck and you have pipes in the back and someone hits you and a pipe does you a Final Destination.

Then it would be your own fault for not properly securing your load.

FCKGW posted:Yeah, that's pretty much the safest way you could one of those things. If you got your hand stuck it there it would just nudge it close to the axe head but not do anything. No, it has the big problem that there's nothing protecting your from falling onto it and getting minced. Also the pushing part is tall enough that if you are grasping the log one handed, it will push your hand towards the blade and it seems to go close enough that you'll lose couple fingers.

This clip was the scariest thing in the world to me when I was very young. My folks would recount me screaming hysterically, vaulting the couch, knocking over wicker chairs and boxes of toys and whatever else was between me and my upstairs bedroom closet. Hadn't thought about this in years, maybe decades, and scrolling down the page and revealing the preview image still elicited a massive instinctual "AAAAHH". Brains are weird, man. Anyhow, thanks to the poster for linking it and providing a bizarre nostalgia trip. Edit: Jonny Nox posted:That video (or one like it) loving terrified 4 year old me. Whoa, and now I just read this post.  terror twin.

quote:Fun fact: When Yuri Gargarin was on his way to the launch pad, he realized the suit-up had taken so long that he needed to pee. He got out of the truck and peed on the tire. Actually, a recently developed Russian spacesuit eliminates the pee port, so they'll no longer be able to do it, at least the old way.

SelenicMartian posted:Actually, a recently developed Russian spacesuit eliminates the pee port, so they'll no longer be able to do it, at least the old way. There wasn't a pee port. The russian space suit just had a big hole in the front that you climb into the suit through. So you'd get all laced up in the astronaut building or whatever, ride in the van, stop, open the suit, piss on the tire, do the suit back up yourself and then launch into space. At least that's how Scott Kelly described it for his launch into space.

Yes. They changed the way the new one closes, removing the lacing.

Pissing in space is so critical that if one of the toilets on the ISS breaks, EVERYTHING stops to allow the astronauts to fix it. If, for some reason, both of them break, and they do not fix it within a few days, they suit up, get in capsules and return to earth. The one on the space shuttle was awful and similar, but the shuttle flights were shorter. Also everyone has their own pee cup/sleve/she-wee, don't mix them up.

The story I remember being relayed to me at Space Camp  was that the toilet on the shuttle had a fan inside, to encourage your poo poo to drift downwards. It also would chop it up into smaller pieces, presumably to help out move through the system.Once, an astronaut on his first flight used the toilet first out of anyone, and in the words of my lecturer: Mr. Hungry threw up. He thought he hosed up the procedure, and so cleaned it all up himself and didn't tell anyone. The next person to use it had previously flown in the shuttle and could tell something was wrong. There was a breeze coming up, instead of heading down. Turns out, the fan had been installed upside down and they had to fix it in orbit.

My brother in law was an engineer at Nasa. You literally back your rear end up, using a camera, to a vacuum hole to poop in/pee in for the ladies. For dudes they custom make you a sleeve that fits around your dong to piss in .

The UK Maritime Accident Investigation Branch has just published a report into an incident last year that this thread might 'enjoy': https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5d93631a40f0b65e5ec0dd35/2019-12-Priscilla.pdf A coaster trundles through the Pentland Firth (the gap between the top of Scotland and the Orkney Islands), while the sole watchkeeper watches music videos on his phone (and quite possibly falls asleep), having switched the autopilot pilot from 'follow the pre-programmed safe route' mode to 'follow a fixed heading until told otherwise' mode as soon as he came on watch. The local coastguard and the local traffic control centres both call him up and warn him he's about to pile up on the rocks. He says 'yeah, I suppose I'd better change course' to the first warning, but doesn't actually carry out any action, and when he gets the second call, which paraphrases as 'if you don't turn left this instant you're going to crash, you doofus', he replies 'what, you say I should turn right? Im gonna turn right...' Ship piles up on the rocks and suffers major hull damage. Lots of good OSHA material there - I didn't know it was now OK for small ships to have unmanned engine rooms and not carry a dedicated marine engineer if they're in coastal waters...instead they can have a dual-qualified officer who doubles as both part-time engineer and part-time watchkeeper. Which is what this guy was.

They had some clout, and got them renamed to colossal, huge, and gargantuan. Or so I've been told, anyway.

The story is that the toilet wasn't actually working properly, and stuff leaking out was a regular thing. The root cause turned out to be that all the astronauts had asked for a large, even when they actually had more proportionate anatomy.

Yeah this I own an 81 VW Rabbit pickup because lets be honest it's hilarious that such a thing exists at all, but any hill with more than 100' of vertical change means I need to be doing 75 at the bottom so I have enough momentum to only downshift into third by the time I get back to the top. 90s Ranger/Tacoma is basically the perfect truck
